See the doctor: If the symptoms have not gone by now you should have your urine checked and be treated likely with antibiotics as indicated. The tissue can be from the sensitive lining of the bladder. The key is not to let this become an ascending infection or kidney infection which is much more serious. Bladder or kidney stones are also possible.

Get med eval. : UNSWEETENED cranberry can help with UTI prevention but usually doesn't cure an infection. It can decrease bacteria adhering to urinary tract. Hydrate well. May need antibiotics.
